allowing the LTC3786 to be used in high power boost n
±1% 1.2V Reference Voltage
applications. n
RSENSE or Inductor DCR Current Sensing
A 4.5V to 38V input supply range encompasses a wide n
100% Duty Cycle Capability for Synchronous MOSFET
range of system architectures and battery chemistries. n
Low Quiescent Current: 55µA
When biased from the output of the boost converter or n Phase-Lockable Frequency (75kHz to 850kHz) another auxiliary supply, the LTC3786 can operate from n Programmable Fixed Frequency (50kHz to 900kHz) an input supply as low as 2.5V after start-up. The 55µA n Adjustable Output Voltage Soft-Start no-load quiescent current extends operating run time in n Power Good Output Voltage Monitor battery-powered systems. n Low Shutdown Current IQ: <8µA n Internal 5.4V LDO for Gate Drive Supply The operating frequency can be set for a 50kHz to 900kHz n Thermally Enhanced 16-Pin 3mm × 3mm QFN and range or synchronized to an external clock using the MSOP Packages internal PLL. The LTC3786 also features a precision 1.2V reference and a power good output indicator. The SS pin APPLICATIONS ramps the output voltage during start-up. The PLLIN/MODE pin selects among Burst Mode® operation, pulse-skipping n Industrial and Automotive Power Supplies mode or continuous inductor current mode at light loads. n Automotive Start-Stop Systems n Medical Devices All registered trademarks and trademarks are the property of their respective owners. n High Voltage Battery-Powered Systems TYPICAL APPLICATION
